Resolved - This incident has been resolved. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we addressed this issue. A detailed root cause analysis will be shared as soon as it is available.
Jul 9, 13:52 UTC

Update - Actions, Pages builds, Copilot Cloud Agent, and Copilot Code review have all recovered and are mitigated.

We are continuing to monitor to ensure full recovery, and investigating the health of the affected infrastructure.
Jul 9, 13:41 UTC

Monitoring - The degradation affecting Actions and Pages has been mitigated. We are monitoring to ensure stability.
Jul 9, 13:39 UTC

Update - We are continuing to monitor slow recovery in Actions and Pages builds as the system works through the high volume of backlog.

Customers may see a small rate of API and job failures as the system is recovering.

Copilot Cloud Agent and Copilot Code Review also failed to start for approximately 30 minutes during this incident, and we are monitoring recovery.

Pages were accessible throughout the incident.
Jul 9, 13:17 UTC

Update - Actions is experiencing degraded availability. We are continuing to investigate.
Jul 9, 13:16 UTC

Update - We're seeing Actions and Pages recovery.

For a period of approximate 20 minutes ~96% of GitHub Actions runs on GitHub-hosted runners were failing to start, but has now recovered and we are seeing jobs processing.

GitHub pages builds were also failing during that period, but Pages are still accessible.

We are continuing to monitor for full recovery.

Incident with Pages

Resolved - On July 2nd, 2026, between approximately 15:00 and 18:30 UTC, the GitHub Pages service experienced degraded deployment performance due to a surge in demand that exceeded available processing capacity. During this period, users publishing to GitHub Pages may have seen their deployments queued or taking substantially longer than usual to go live. No other GitHub services were impacted.

We mitigated the incident by scaling up Pages deployment workers and provisioning additional storage capacity to clear the backlog.

GitHub is reviewing capacity planning and autoscaling measures to reduce the likelihood of similar delays in the future.
Jul 2, 18:25 UTC

Update - Pages deployment latency is recovering. The team continues working toward full mitigation and a return to nominal state.
Jul 2, 17:57 UTC

Update - We are investigating reports of slow and failing Pages deployments. Access to Pages is unaffected.

Delays in copilot budget limits resets for some users

Resolved - On July 1, 2026, between approximately 00:00 UTC and 13:04 UTC, some GitHub Copilot customers whose budget was exhausted before the monthly reset remained incorrectly blocked from paid Copilot usage after the new billing month began, even though their budgets had reset. Some budget changes also took longer than usual to apply. Only customers with an exhausted budget were affected, which limited the impact.

This was caused by a caching issue at the monthly reset: for some users, a pre-reset "budget exhausted" status was re-saved and served even though their budget had reset, so they stayed blocked. We had built a safeguard ahead of the reset to prevent this, but it did not take effect because an internal configuration service did not load its settings correctly. We resolved the incident by deploying a change that discards the outdated status and recomputes access from current budget data independently of that configuration, and by working through the backlog of budget updates.

To prevent recurrence, we are ensuring pre-reset status cannot survive the monthly budget reset, adding alerting for this failure mode, and increasing capacity to absorb the monthly surge of budget updates.

Disruption with some GitHub services - Signup Flow

Resolved - Between 15:19 UTC and 15:49 UTC on June 30, 2026, users were unable to complete the signup flow for GitHub.com/signup. Approximately 62% of new user signups failed for about 30 minutes during this window.

This was caused by a configuration change to the signup flow that unintentionally blocked users from completing signup.

We mitigated the incident by reverting the change, which restored successful signups. To reduce the likelihood and impact of similar issues, we are adopting staged, incremental rollouts for changes on the signup path, improving our ability to test these changes before they reach production, and adding checks to verify signup health before and during any change that affects this flow.

Disruption with some GitHub services

Resolved - From June 26, 2026 at 23:40 UTC through June 28, 2026 at 20:55 UTC, Copilot Cloud Agent was degraded. The agent could fail when reporting progress, replying to pull request comments, or opening pull requests. For affected built-in tool calls, the average error rate was approximately 8%, with hourly error rates peaking around 26%.

This was due to a regression introduced during a Copilot Cloud Agent runtime deployment that caused several built-in agent tools to become unavailable. In many cases, the affected tool calls failed silently so agent jobs appeared to succeed. This monitoring gap meant it took longer than expected to identify the failure. We mitigated the incident by reverting the runtime deployment to the previously stable version.

We've added monitoring and alerting for this class of tool-availability error to reduce time-to-detection. We're also adding regression tests for these built-in agent tools, and improving the shipping safety for future runtime rollouts to avoid similar issues.
Jun 28, 20:55 UTC

Update - Copilot cloud agent had been experiencing intermittent problems with opening pull requests, pushing changes and replying to comments. A fix has been deployed and we are validating that fix.

Degradation with Webhooks, Pull Requests and Actions

Resolved - On June 25, 2026, between 17:33 UTC and 17:55 UTC, our background job service experienced degradation which increased delays to pull requests, repository pushes, Actions workflows, and Webhooks, with delays peaking at 7m. The issue was caused by underlying hypervisor issues and an incoming traffic spike, causing service timeouts which led to a connection storm and continual rebalances.

The issue was mitigated by replacing the problem node at 17:49, after which all services saw recovery by 18:07.
Jun 25, 18:27 UTC

Update - We identified an issue that caused degradation across multiple services including Webhooks, Pull Requests, Actions, and Issues. Customers may have experienced delays or failures with these services. We have applied mitigations and affected services have recovered.
Jun 25, 18:27 UTC

Monitoring - The degradation affecting Actions, Issues, Pull Requests and Webhooks has been mitigated. We are monitoring to ensure stability.
